Biolife I00004929 Woundseal powder, 4 pieces

It has once again come time to reorder this product and although it has nearly doubled in price since my last purchase I still think it’s worth it. I have used this on myself and my dog for cuts and when I have accidentally nicked my dogs claw too far and it’s bled. Yes, it does smart a little when applied BUT it certainly does what it should do and stops bleeding immediately. For me personally, I think it’s a first aid kit essential and it has a shelf life of around two years.

I take blood thinners so even a minor graze or very small cut can take a lot of plasters and pads to stop the bleeding. The powder in these tiny tubes applied to the wet blood coagulates the wound and stops bleeding straight away without affecting blood thinning medication according to the manufacturer. They are now part of my home first aid kit. Not cheap but very effective.

As a person on blood thinners any cut or graze can lead to prolonged bleeding, this woundseal acts quickly to seal the wound and keep it sealed whilst healing. Would recommend it.

Cut small right toe corn, with blade. Cut it a little bit too deep, Bleeding would not stop. Used this, and stopped within a minute... Highly recommended. Would buy again.

Expensive, but worth it if you are on blood thinning medication. The powder scabs over small cuts and wounds almost instantly and is especially useful in difficult to administer areas with a plaster or bandage. The tubes are quite small so handy when travelling. A few minutes after being administered the grey power forms a normal looking scab which remains in place, even when washed, until the wound has healed

Does seal a wound but stings like crazy.

I wasn’t sure what to expect with this product. In my mind I though of a soft white powder that gently covered the wound and nursed it gently back to health. In truth, it looked like black pepper with the texture of sand and it nursed the wound like a heavy handed mobster! My dad is 98% bed bound, only able to get from bed to commode, and one of the drawbacks is getting sweat rashes on his botty. He had recently been put on blood thinners due to a DVT in his leg. Sadly, this caused his sore to bleed and weep more than usual and I was struggling to get the bleeding to stop. I went online and found this product. The write ups were good so I took a chance. After using the commode I asked him to bend over slightly so I could sprinkle some powder to the offending area. . . . . I would have loved to have given this product a score of 10 for comedic effect because I had no idea my dad could hit such a high note vocally or have both feet leave the ground at the same time. He had tears in his eyes and the colour of his face would have been a best seller for dulux paint. It did the job though but not sure if it was actually the product or shock that stopped the bleeding. My dad sometimes scratches his scrotum without thinking about it and makes that area bleed too . . . . . I have threatened to sprinkle ‘down there’ if he doesn’t behave lol.

Title says it all, really. I’m 82, on thinners, and have very thin skin on my arms. Keep knocking them and causing cuts and abrasions that bleed for ages, sometimes even days. Tried this. - wow! Stopped bleeding almost instantly. Totally recommend if you have similar problems.
